When I was young and full of wonder The universe was tender Every dream I had would come true Music was my worldview Hearts fell at my feet Each breath was so sweet Life was complete Now the past is over I was cut down much too soon I can't speak, I can't play But this flesh has much more to say I wave good-bye To yesterday's highs Life has other plans Love and confusion Peace and destruction What is the point of it all Why must we all feel small Our hearts are not toys We just want real joy Life's just a dream You ask me this question Due to my unfortunate fate How can you carry on Without feeling hate Love brings light to the darkness inside Love's the voice that sings: Hold on! Hold on, hold on Hold on to love Hold on, hold on Hold on to me
